Me myself will start law school next yea, & hopefully end up practicing Health Law, and my soon to be husband will be a Surgeon. We use our platforms to educate each other, not to compete. There's always a benefit and medium you just have to be willing to find it!

I work on the business side of things, though, which I am quick to tell my husband's fellow doctor friends. In fact, far from being wary of me, I think they are happy to have me as a resource who can advise them! I find my knowledge of the law to be especially helpful in talking by husband down when something bad happens at the hospital and he immediately extrapolates in his head to the worst case scenario. Not all lawyers are evil :-)Tuesday's Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07254396018626291386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6575859860218981694.post-77885010892195398852013-09-26T21:29:12.164-04:002013-09-26T21:29:12.164-04:00Every doctor needs a good lawyer and every lawyer ...Every doctor needs a good lawyer and every lawyer needs a good doctor. Instead of getting upset about the ripoff's in each other's professions (because rip offs are everywhere - bad doctor's do deserve to be taken to the cleaners and greasy lawyers have their place in hell as well) try to find common ground. One side of our family is all lawyers and the other is all doctor's. It can definitely work. Good luck!anonymousdocmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09517117124225921755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6575859860218981694.post-75764254239681406452013-09-26T11:52:20.231-04:002013-09-26T11:52:20.231-04:00My motto is "No Blood and Guts"! But no ...My motto is "No Blood and Guts"! But no matter how many times I chant it, it always comes around. Your husband's colleague is right... you have to cover yourself ALL THE TIME!! I've seen it all. I've seen doctors through other doctors under the bus to protect themselves!! It's ridiculously awful.<br />I think doctors and lawyers can be friends if they are in completely different realms. That said, we have no attorney friends. ;)Your Doctor's Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18010888083503743747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6575859860218981694.post-54870166130356259812013-09-25T21:15:43.118-04:002013-09-25T21:15:43.118-04:00I think the sign is definitely a must! :)
It'...I think the sign is definitely a must! :) <br /><br />It's nice to reconnect with old friends.. Your husband and the lawyer have very high stress jobs- and could be helpful to bounce ideas off of each other.. Maybe it is possible- after you make the sign- to be great friends. :) ha. Good luck with it! ;-)<br />Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11666099221140050656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6575859860218981694.post-5435466838849461642013-09-25T12:05:29.839-04:002013-09-25T12:05:29.839-04:00Hi, I haven't seen you on the blogosphere for ...Hi, I haven't seen you on the blogosphere for a while!From A Doctors Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02410694740641116438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6575859860218981694.post-50423681899301037632013-09-24T21:14:18.527-04:002013-09-24T21:14:18.527-04:00We don't talk about it in our house, either.
